A final house tour

September 3, 2013

Now that our home is starting to fill up with boxes in preparation for the big move, I thought I’d do one final tour of the pink house and how far we’ve come since we moved in.

We’ve got a week left until we close on the new place and move, but I’m already starting to get nostalgic and emotional. Putting together this post and compiling all the projects we completed was surprisingly therapeutic.

We caulked and painted the walls; added a mirror and art; hung a privacy shade; spray-painted the wall hooks; and blogged about it all in one fell swoop. We also bought a lovely new stackable washer and dryer, which I’m especially sad to say goodbye to.

It’s crazy to think about how much we accomplished in the five years we lived here (most of which took place during the three years we owned the house), and a little sad to think about the projects we didn’t get to. I’m really looking forward to seeing what the next owners do with the house.

Now it’s time to move onto the next big adventure. In a week, we’ll close on our new home and I’ll post photos asap. I can’t wait to get started on fixing up a brand new place!

p.s. These photos are all ones that the realty photographer took for our listing, by the way. The wide-angle lens makes our little duplex look so much bigger! So fancy.
